quick question, is the 13b from the fc the same in fds, minus the tts? similar? or can u build it up to the fds motor?

 

No, it is not the same
Yes, it is similar
No, it cannot be built up to an FD motor

 

well i have this fc motor i want to build up and i'm thinking after its done if i can drop it in a fd roller or have to drop it in the fc.

 

You can drop virtually any engine you want into an FD, but, while I have no real understanding of the BENEFITS of the 13BT, I'm not entirely sure why you'd swap it in over a 13B-REW. Significant changes were made to the 13B-REW, the twin turbos notwithstanding... and you won't get those with a 13BT.

Consider this:

Cost of clean FD roller = $6000-8000 roughly
Cost of building a 13BT to exceed 13BREW specifications = $3000 or more, depends on parts and labor.
Cost of custom fabrication of motor mounts = $800-1000
Cost of wiring/custom ECU = $1500-2000

So... your project would cost between roughly $11.5K and $14K. You are barely beating the bone stock FD in price and performance for what I promise is more trouble than it's worth.

Do an FC right and drop that engine into it. It'll be a screamer and it won't break the bank.

 

thanks for the insight. well look for a built fc motor up for sale later or maybe my fc up here running..or something else.
